@ CazzMicknTom!

CONGRATULATIONS Pink- Kisses!
I am absolutely thrilled for you!

As others have said - no soft cheeses.
No pate- so no stuffed mushrooms etc
And make sure everything you eat in cooked right through.

As others have said, no carrying ANYTHING.
Never mind not carrying anything heavy - don't carry ANYTHING!

Relax and be waited on for a change.

Ooooh fab news....love it!

Congratulations Pink -kisses....brill news

When I flew at 12 weeks pregnant to zante, I was advised to wear flight sock/stockings during the flight, to avoid swelling in the ankles and feet. I also did the feet exercises as well as walking up and down the aisle.

Also if you happen to get queasy during the hol like i did, try flat coke to get rid of it. it really does work.

ive NEVER been on holiday while pregnant but i'll only be 13.5 weeks when we go. Is there any special precautions i need to take?

It's a bit late for that isn't it.
Sorry, I just couldn't resist.

Sorry, I just couldn't resist.

lol i thnk it may just be a tad too late aswel

thanks soo much every 1

Congratulations on your news.

Just a little warning to watch the sun, I found to my cost that my skin was a lot more sensitive to the sun when I was pregnant and I burned much more easily than normal so I'd advise caution in case it happens to you.

Have a great time and accept graciously any pampering that comes your way!

ahhh congratulations to you both....its great news. definately listen to all the advise given about foods and the sun, also be careful with the water,if i were you i would make sure you ask for any drinks without ice cubes...i got a nasty tummy bug (although i wasnt pregnant at the time) because of ice cubes....its just about being careful really. go and have a fab time,plenty of relaxation and quiet (youll not get much in 6 months time!!!!!)...there's nothing better in the whole world than being a mummy,its great!!

hello, i went away last week i was 13/14 weeks pregnant and survived!! as all other said avoid all the dodgy foods!
i have steel stomach so as fine.......
my dr advised flightsocks for flights over 4hours mine was just over 3 and didnt use them!
Take your midwife notes if you have them yet

I actually found out I was pregnant one year on holiday.
We was in Fuerteventura with the Kids and the second week I was really ill all the time throwing up and just feeling awful. Ruined the second week of our holiday as I didnt want to do anything as I was so sick. Couldnt eat anything. Had to send him out with the kids for their tea etc , I stayed in alone.
Anyway I have a lovely son now so it was worth it.
Congratulations!

Hi, Congratulations! Agree with Jan400 about your skin being more sensitive to the sun. I went to Cyprus when I was around 10 wks pg with my son and found my skin (especially face) to be really sensitive. I also felt the heat a lot more than usual and spent quite a lot of time in the shade (asleep!!). Also another food to watch out for at home and abroad is anything containing uncooked egg, such as fresh mayo or coleslaw...you're ok if it's from a jar as it's pastuerised but if it's made fresh then it's best to avoid it. Still had a lovely relaxing holiday though depite having to watch what I ate and drank and I'm sure you will too...have a fab time and as others have said, make sure your other half waits on you hand and foot

Congratulations pink-kissess.

I don't think anyone has mentioned insurance yet. Presumably you weren't pregnant at the time of booking your holiday and arranging travel insurance, and so your insurer would not be aware of your good news. There may be an onus on you to notify them of the pregnancy, so it would be worth giving them a call.

Good thinking, David! I think we got caught up in the gooeyness and forgot practicality for a bit there
